Error suppressed in quiet mode

Postby watabehj » Thu May 21, 2015 5:51 pm

Hello. I am using Eviews9(64bit-version Standard Edition May 20 Build), and found the following phenomenon.
When I run the following two-line program in verbose mode,
smpl 1985 2000
copy page1\ccc page2\ddd
where series ccc does not exist in page1, it returns error "CCC is not defined in "COPY PAGE1\CCC PAGE2\DDD".". But it does not return error when run in quiet mode. However, it does return error in quiet mode when the first line is replaced with "smpl @all".
(The same phenomenon happens with Eviews8.)

Could you provide more details?

If I run the following program:

Code: Select all

create(page=page1) a 1980 2000 'series ccc=nrnd pagecreate(page=page2) a 1980 2000 copy page1\ccc page2\ddd
It returns the same, correct, error whether run in quiet or verbose.

If you add smpl specification right before copy command as follows

create(page=page1) a 1980 2000
'series ccc=nrnd
pagecreate(page=page2) a 1980 2000
smpl 1980 2000
copy page1\ccc page2\ddd

it does not return error in quiet mode.
